With the Pope in Spain, AP's Winfield Trumpets Gay 'Kiss-in,' Misrepresents the Catholic Church...

MISQUOTES, MISCONCEPTIONS AND LIES
“You must warn and caution the children of earth not to abandon the Vicar of Christ. The enemies about him seek to set the pace for his downfall. They will bring into print through the medias of your world—your newspapers, your radios, and that agent that you have known as television—grave errors, misquotes, misconceptions, and lies! Know now that these lies were created by satan, for satan is the father of all liars, My child. He is the epitome of deceit and deception." - Our Lady, April 13, 1974

NewsBusters reported on November 7, 2010:

The Associated Press' Nicole Winfield is at it again with erroneous and slanted reporting of the Catholic Church. In an article about Pope Benedict XVI's dedication of a basilica in Spain this weekend (Sun. 11/7/10), Winfield writes:

As [the Pope] headed to the basilica, about 200 gays and lesbians staged a 'kiss-in' to protest his visit and church policies that consider homosexual acts 'intrinsically disordered.' Later, a few hundred women marched to protest their second-class status in the church and the Vatican's opposition to birth control.

First: Winfield tells us that "some 250,000" supporters attended the dedication. If there were 200 gay demonstrators, that would represent 0.08% (or 8/10,000ths) of all who were in attendance. At most, this minuscule "kiss-in" merits a passing mention. Yet with the article's headline, "Pope defends family as Spanish gays hold 'kiss-in'," the AP practically gives the gays equal billing.

Second: To claim that women have "second-class status" in the Church is a gross falsehood and misrepresentation. The Catholic Church firmly asserts, "Man and woman are both with one and the same dignity 'in the image of God'" (CCC 369). There is no such thing as a "second-class citizen" in the Church.

What prompted Winfield to state that women have "second-class status"? She doesn't tell us. But if it's because of the Church's male-only priesthood, Winfield reveals her ignorance of Catholic teaching. As we've written several times before, the ordination of priests is a sacrament in the Catholic Church, and it maintains that sacraments were instituted by Jesus himself. Jesus chose only men for the priesthood, and the Church simply does not have the authority to change the nature of a sacrament. The Church also asserts that the priesthood is about role, not power. In his Letter to the Romans (Rom. 12:4-8) and his First Letter to the Corinthians (1 Cor 7 (all)), Paul teaches about roles in the Church. (For even more on this, check out: Mulieris Dignitatem (Pope JPII, 1988); Ordinatio Sacerdotalis (Pope JPII, 1994); and "Public acts of contrition in the age of spin control" (Mary Ann Glendon, 1997.)

Winfield should get kudos for one notable thing, however. Winfield's piece about the Pope and the Church may be the longest article I've seen in recent memory by a secular organization that didn't mention the clergy sex abuse scandals at all. Finally!

"Are you so blind that you do not recognize the acceleration of sin among you? Murders abound, thievery, all manner of carnage, destruction of young souls, abortion, homosexuality, condemned from the beginning of time by the Eternal Father. Yet sin has become a way of life. Sin is condoned now, even unto the highest judge of your land and your lands throughout the world. As you have sown so shall you reap. Sin is death, not only of the spirit, but of the body. Wars are a punishment for man's sin, his greed, his avarice." - Our Lady of the Roses, August 14, 1981

The awesome Bayside Prophecies... https://www.tldm.org/../Bayside/
These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995.

MEDIA CONTROLLED
"Your news media, My children, are controlled, as other means of communication. You must be very careful what you read now, for you will often be deluded. Much that is credited as coming from the Holy Father is not coming from him, but from those about him who are now in full control." - Our Lady, September 7, 1976

ATHEISTS
"Your medias of communication are controlled. Can you find the truth among atheists?" - Our Lady, May 26, 1976

RETURN MORALITY
"My child, I want you to do all you can to foster the return of mortality and morality to the medias, and also to those you love--your neighbors, your children. And do not be affrighted or flee from the sinner, for he, too, can be saved by your efforts and your prayers." - Our Lady, October 5, 1985

GRAND MASTERS
"I caution you in the days ahead to read all periodicals and approach your news medias with a critical eye, for you seldom will receive now the truth in print or through your news medias, My children, which are fully controlled by the Grand Masters and those who are seeking to bring about the one-world religion and the one rule of government--a measure of enslaving all of mankind under the forces of Antichrist." - Jesus, November 22, 1976

COMMUNIST
"In many countries throughout your world it appears, My children--and I say, appears-- that the communist country leaders are permitting religion within their rule. This is a sham, My children, a cover-up for the fact that it is state-controlled. The propaganda machines send out much propaganda that deceives the public and those who are willing to believe all given out in the medias." - Our Lady, May 13, 1978

KEEP ABREAST
"I ask that you keep abreast of your times by your radios, and also your newspapers. But remember, My children: keep abreast of your times with an open heart and eyes, because much is kept from you. It is the way of the medias today. They are controlled, My children." - Jesus, June 18, 1987

ILLUMINATI
"There is a group in the United States and the world, a group that started many years ago, calling itself the Illuminati, coming from the word 'light bearer.' Naturally, My children, this light that they bear stands for Lucifer, and as such they have gone through the world secretly known as Luciferians. They have brought into your country, the United States, and your neighbor Canada, a group of witchcraft practices.
"Well have they laid their plan to destroy your children with drugs, using your school systems, your medias of communication, your newspapers, your televisions, your radios: every means of communication has been infiltrated by the members and sub-members of the Illuminati, a conglomeration of individuals and powers and principalities throughout the world, and banking systems." - Our Lady, November 25, 1978

ILLUMINATI CONTROL MUCH OF THE MEDIA
"You will all keep a constant vigilance of prayer going throughout your nation and the world. Pray that the world does not descend upon you in the form of the Bear. For he is roaming throughout the world, and gradually the nations are falling. He has a plan for the capitulation of the United States and Canada A bit of this, My child and My children, was given to you by My Mother. The rest shall be told to you in due time.
"I ask that you keep abreast of your times by your radios, and also your newspapers. But remember, My children: keep abreast of your times with an open heart, and eyes, because much is kept from you. It is the way of the medias today. They are controlled, My children. Yes, they are. There is in your country an institution rising, called the Illuminati. They will control much of the media. So, My children, you will have to depend on the graces received from Heaven." - Jesus, June 18, 1987
